Best Sewer Line Repair in New York NY

He's a humble guy and an honest plumber. He did a much needed clean out and service of my boiler.

I am very grateful to have been able to connect with someone that did great work and is a good communicator and not out to take advantage of anyone. He was easy to work with and highly highly recommend him.

I have been using Josh and Bullseye for my condo in Manhattan for many years.  He is always communicative, professional and repairs whatever the problem is for what I believe is a very fair price.  I most recently had a shower issue and when he arrived he was able to fix it in just a few minutes.  He said he was not even going to charge me for his time (no parts needed) as it was such a simple thing.  He would not accept payment and I appreciate his honest and fair business.  I have recommended him to others in my building and trust him and his work.

Had a Friday night sink emergency that turned out to be more than just a clog - there were rotted pipes as well. 24 Hour were responsive,  knowledgeable and didn't wuit until the job was done right. Thry actually left the pipes in a better configuration than they were before. My new go-to plumber, for sure!

Robert & his colleague did an great job in our apartment. They hung 2 heavy mirrors, tightened plumbing fixtures, fixed a light fixture, patched & repainted drywall, fixed a doorknob & also hung an electrical panel. When I called to let Robert know I was not 100% satisfied with one item, he promptly came back & fixed it at no charge. Overall, I would highly recommend Riverside Handyman Services.

BLUF: Knowledgeable, straightforward, efficient, courteous, expensive.

A part in our boiler system was starting to go bad, occasionally making sharp noises and leaking lubricating oil. We used Yelp's Projects feature to look for contractors to help us resolve this situation. I added a picture of the part making unusual noises to my Yelp project request to provide some detail about the situation.

Tom's Plumbing & Heating Services responded first. From my photo, Justin identified my malfunctioning part as the circulator pump, and after a few questions confirming that nothing else was wrong, Justin recommended that the circulator pump be replaced. He provided two options for circulator pumps, along with web links and total costs for each option, and a web link to my existing circulator pump for reference. I selected a pump with horsepower equivalent to my existing pump. The cost of all parts that Justin referenced were roughly equivalent on Amazon.com.

Other vendors requested a complete picture of the boiler system, or had initial consultation fees.

The service visit totaled roughly 90 minutes. In that time, Justin:
- Replaced the boiler drain valve because it hasn't been used in many years and no longer worked
- Drained my boiler
- Installed the new circulator pump
- Bled (i.e., removed air from) most of my radiators. Justin emphasized the importance of bleeding the radiators, as air in the system reduces the boiler's efficiency.
- Demonstrated how to override the water pressure regulator in case of insufficient system pressure.
- Pointed out other potential points of failure to monitor in the boiler system -- the water pressure regulator and expansion tank.

Overall, we were very happy with the service provided.

Thanks to Mike S. for his review, which helped in our selection!

My dual pipes underneath my sink was leaking, I called BK Piping and Heating and within an hour Bruno the plumber was on schedule and fixed the problem. Thanks Bruno!

Olsi responded quickly and effectively to our unusual need in connection with our new faucet installation. He handled the job like a pro, and we learned that he was also able to assist us with other needs (eg, toilet and basic electrical). We hired him for additional work based on his responsiveness and good nature. He was committed to finishing the job ms properly and his prices are fair enough. Highly recommended!

This is not an honest company.  

My boiler's hot surface igniter goes on and off.  I called the office and spoke to Donna two days ago.  I asked what do they charge for making a visit.  She replied the big boss will be there so I should ask him.  A guy came and tightened wires and said there is nothing to maintain for my boiler.  He said it's working fine and charged us $150 for something that took him less than ten minutes.  I called Donna to ask if they would charge again if the igniter goes out again.  She sounded very annoyed and said maybe she'll give us a discount if it goes out next few days.  Well the igniter went out eight hours after he visited and I called and left a message.  It's been more than 24 hours since I left a message and no one got back to me.  

They should make it very clear what they charge for their first hour and additional hours plus parts.  I know plumbers are in high demand in the winter time, but my experience with this company was pretty bad.  I felt like we got robbed because he did not fix what I called him for.

we had a blocked sewage issue that caused flooding in our basement. When Kyle showed up he didn't have the right equipment so he left to go get it and come back. A little frustrating... but figured I'd still give them a try. Came back with another guy and I could hear them goofing off and making jokes in the basement instead of just getting the work done. When they did finish they said they would write up a bill and wanted to know if I'd pay cash or credit card. I said can I do credit card, but  they never provided a bill. I didn't argue because i just wanted them out of my home. So my husband called the owner after and let him know we felt they they overcharged us, and the owner just argued and said they did the work. they charged a lot of money to just fix the blockage but not clean up the mess. (We ended up renting a shopvac and cleaning it ourselves) Overall wouldn't call them again because I just felt uncomfortable in my own home and wanted them out ASAP, and didn't find them professional.

Contacted me 15 min before scheduled arrival time and said he would be 2.5 hours late. Huge inconvenience and very unprofessional. Fixed the leak for $300 (with a mismatched part) left a slight drip then tried to charge me $300 MORE to fix that. Ran the water an hour later to clean the tub (he did not put down a towel to keep the space clean) and there was an additional leak. NOT a happy customer! I definitely wish I'd chosen a different plumber. Please do not waste your money like I did and look elsewhere.

As a homeowner, I put the feelers out through my usual channels for a plumber and just happened to find Recommended Plumbing on yelp while searching. Initially, Eddie and I had a quick conversation and I wasn't even sure I was going to use him. I'm sure glad that I did. No regrets here! After whittling down my list of plumbers, I realized that all charged between $150-$200 just to come out and assess the issue. I wasn't above paying a service charge but these guys were charging the equivalent of one hour of labor. I understand that the money goes towards the cost of the job but that all but GUARANTEES that I go with that particular plumber! Not Eddie. His service charge was very reasonable and yeah, I was going to have him do the job anyway. Being practical about the service charge was one of THE main reasons he won my business. Now on to his expertise: bottom line, this guy knows his stuff! He took one look at the issue and told me what needed to be done and how much it was going to cost, all-in. When he and his partner, Patrick finished up, he even gave me a bit of a break on the balance due because I was paying in cash. All in all, Eddie is very friendly, he knows his stuff, and is very reasonable with his pricing.

I have been doing business with Austin Plumbing and Heating for nearly a decade.

I've had Michael work on several of my buildings. The scope of the work has ranged from large boilers, sewer site lines, lift stations and gas leaks.

I have been satisfied every time I've used Austin Plumbing and Heating. They have always completed work on time and within budget. The work they have done has always been up to code and passed inspection. I highly recommend them!

It was great having a small family business doing work at my house. Given how the sewer lines were above ground, they installed a pump to allow me to have a sink in my basement. The reason that I needed this sink is for my aquarium hobbies. And long behold, not only were they great plumbers, but they are also into aquariums themselves.

A few things I like to say about them... They are honest people doing professional work. They communicated well and were able to commit to their pricing. They did their best to make this work for me with discussion. In case you are wondering why they may not take your phone calls immediately, they are also the same people responding to Yelp and texts. Their phones were ringing while both of them were busy working on my sink. In my first picture, you can see that both of them are busy trying to fit all the pipes and etc..  Definitely text them and you will hear back from them shortly.

Great communications is the key to develop good relationships with customers. They responded 100% of the time. Given that I was busy with work and meetings, texting back and forth to work out project costs seem to work great for me and them.

Lastly, I just want to say that I highly recommend them.

There was a blockage in my kitchen pipe which caused a drainage problem in the sink. I spoke to Oscar on Tuesday afternoon and he was able to come over the next day. He was professional and also communicative about what needed to be done. He was able to fix the problem in less than an hour and most importantly, at a reasonable price. I am so glad that I found Racso and I am definitely going to contact him in the future with our plumbing issues.

Peter arrived promptly on Sunday with short notice and solved a perplexing behind the wall wide spread water leak right away. It appears experience does matter in this case. With tremendous patience and a big smile throughout, he searched for the unusual parts needed in various hardware stores, and moved multiple appliances to fix the broken part. There were times when he could have taken a short cut but he did not. We always appreciate a technician with a well appointed toolkit to help maximize the chances of getting the job done in one visit. The price he charged is fair for the amount of headache of this job. I would call Peter next time I have a problem again. Peter also has an edge over his peers because he appears to know a lot about carpentry and electronics. Many thanks for the good job.

Me again just adding Dorjan also popped by super fast to fix my slow draining tub!  I'm now showering in the fastest draining a shower ever and know I can trust him with my house's 100 year old pipes! Very happy yet once again :)

I reached out to Continental this past Saturday morning because I had a leaking steam boiler return line and was in a bit of a jam due to the  sub par plumber that was assigned to my service request by American Home Shield.   Continental came through like a champ!  When they arrived they assessed the damage, gave me a quote and told me how long the job would take. I hired them on the spot.  They were done within the time frame given and the guys that came out were super friendly and clean.   They did a fantastic job   all around.  So much so that I plan on having them come back next month to do some additional work for me!   I would highly recommend them for any heating and/or plumbing  work needed.  They're responsive,  professional and competitively priced.

I called the company a day or two before Christmas and was the only company that could schedule me before the new year. The plumber showed up right on time for my appt on Dec 28th to install my dishwasher and run a water line to my frig. The plumber was very thorough in explaining details about the installation. The installation was quick and high quality work. I will certainly look to use them as my goto plumber when needed in the future.
